Playa Del Sol Al Marjan Island is a beachfront residential development on Island 2 of Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah. Playa Del Sol by Ellington is delivered by Ellington Properties, a design-led developer operating since 2014 across an international portfolio, bringing its signature architectural style to a fully beachfront address on Al Marjan Island for the first time.

The community comprises 516 residences in total, spread across a 2 basement, ground floor, plus 14 storey tower. The unit mix spans studio, 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, alongside 1 five-bedroom signature villa and 2 four-bedroom penthouses, giving buyers a wide range of beachfront apartments on Al Marjan Island, including compact options such as a 1 bed Playa Del Sol RAK unit and larger family-focused homes. The project is positioned approximately 4 minutes on foot from the beach, with a resident-exclusive jetty and first class yacht service extending that waterfront position further.

Playa Del Sol is currently under construction, having launched in Q1 2025 with handover scheduled for Q4 2027, and direct developer units remain available through RAKcompare on a 60/40 payment plan. For buyers checking the Playa Del Sol payment plan or Playa Del Sol handover, the current structure gives a clear staged payment schedule, while resale is permitted once 30% of the purchase price has been paid, giving early investors an exit route ahead of completion alongside end users buying into a beachfront Al Marjan Island home.

For buyers comparing Al Marjan Island apartments for sale, Ellington Playa Del Sol offers a design-led beachfront address with a 4-level infinity pool, a sunken garden with a cascading waterfall, and close proximity to Wynn Al Marjan Island Resort, distinguishing it from standalone residential towers set back from the water elsewhere on the island.

Residences and Unit Mix

Playa Del Sol spans studio, 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments across its 14 storey tower, alongside 1 five-bedroom signature villa and 2 four-bedroom penthouses for buyers seeking a larger, lower density home within the same beachfront community. As one of the Ellington projects in Ras Al Khaimah, the residences follow Ellington's minimalist, coastal-inspired design language, with natural stone, warm timber tones and floor-to-ceiling glazing carried from the entrance lobby through to soaring, open-plan living spaces and expansive terraces.

The signature villa and penthouses sit apart from the main apartment collection as grand private sanctuaries, with soaring ceilings and bespoke finishes offering an unmatched sense of scale, while studio, 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments give a broader range of buyers, from first-time investors to families, a route into the same address. As units are not delivered furnished, buyers retain the flexibility to fit out their apartment, villa or penthouse to their own specification ahead of move-in or leasing.

Amenities and Lifestyle

Playa Del Sol is built around a 4-level, multi-tier infinity pool offering uninterrupted Arabian Gulf views, paired with a resident-exclusive jetty and first class yacht service for direct waterfront access. A sunken garden with a cascading waterfall provides a quiet, tucked-away retreat within the community, while a dedicated wellness floor houses a fitness studio with cardio, free-weight and skill-up zones, a yoga studio opening onto an outdoor yoga deck, a spa treatment room, a salon and a squash court.

Families are catered for with a clubhouse, a teens' club lounge, indoor and outdoor kids' play areas and a separate kids' pool, alongside a barbeque deck and games table zone for everyday social use. The ground floor and first floor amenity decks are arranged around a double-height, naturally lit lobby with EV charging and dedicated resident parking, giving Playa Del Sol a resort-style amenity offering more typically associated with branded hotel residences.

Location and Connectivity

Playa Del Sol sits on Island 2 of Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah's man-made archipelago known for its beaches, boutique resorts and, most notably, its close proximity to Wynn Al Marjan Island Resort, one of the primary drivers behind rising demand for Al Marjan Island property. The beach itself is approximately 4 minutes on foot from Playa Del Sol Al Marjan Island, reinforcing its position as a genuinely beachfront address rather than a set-back or inland community.

The wider location offers strong connectivity for residents and investors alike, with Ras Al Khaimah International Airport approximately 15 minutes away, Al Hamra Village approximately 10 minutes away, Downtown Ras Al Khaimah approximately 33 minutes away and Dubai International Airport approximately 45 minutes away, making Playa Del Sol Ras Al Khaimah a practical option for both UAE-based and international buyers comparing Al Marjan Island apartments for sale and other Ellington projects in Ras Al Khaimah.

Payment Plan, Resale and Investment Appeal

Playa Del Sol is structured on a 60/40 payment plan, with construction launched in Q1 2025 and handover scheduled for Q4 2027. Direct developer units remain available through RAKcompare, giving buyers a route into a design-led Ellington Properties beachfront address ahead of completion rather than relying solely on the resale market. Buyers comparing the Playa Del Sol payment plan and Playa Del Sol handover should confirm the latest availability, unit price and payment schedule before booking.

Resale is permitted once 30% of the purchase price has been paid, and short-term rental is also permitted for owners, giving investors flexibility to hold, lease short-term, or exit ahead of handover, subject to the relevant Ras Al Khaimah short-term rental regulations.

For investors comparing off-plan Al Marjan Island property, the combination of a genuinely beachfront position, a resident jetty with yacht service, a full wellness and family amenity offering, and proximity to Wynn Al Marjan Island Resort supports strong long-term positioning as the island's tourism and hospitality profile continues to expand around neighbouring projects. Playa Del Sol RAK is therefore relevant for buyers seeking a design-led Ellington project with modern beachfront apartments on Al Marjan Island and future rental appeal.

Who Should Consider Playa Del Sol?

• Buyers searching for beachfront apartments for sale on Al Marjan Island
• Investors seeking an off-plan Ellington Properties development with a defined launch and handover date
• End users who want resort-style amenities, including a private jetty and multi-tier infinity pool, alongside a genuinely beachfront address
• Families interested in the 5 bedroom signature villa or podium-level family amenities such as the kids' pool and play areas
• Buyers considering a 1 bed Playa Del Sol RAK unit as a compact, beachfront investment
• International buyers comparing Al Marjan Island property against other Ras Al Khaimah and Dubai beachfront developments

Why Playa Del Sol Stands Out

Playa Del Sol stands out through its pairing of Ellington Properties' design-led approach, in place since 2014, with a genuinely beachfront position on Al Marjan Island, just 4 minutes on foot from the beach. Playa Del Sol by Ellington also benefits from a resident-exclusive jetty with first class yacht service, a 4-level multi-tier infinity pool and a dedicated wellness floor, extending a resort-style lifestyle into a residential address, while close proximity to Wynn Al Marjan Island Resort places Playa Del Sol within one of Ras Al Khaimah's fastest-growing tourism precincts.

With construction currently underway and handover targeted for Q4 2027, Playa Del Sol remains available directly from the developer through RAKcompare, giving buyers the opportunity to secure a unit on a 60/40 payment plan ahead of a beachfront Al Marjan Island community reaching completion. This makes Playa Del Sol Ras Al Khaimah especially relevant for buyers comparing Ellington Playa Del Sol with Costa Mare and other Al Marjan Island investment options.
